Lubricant is one of the simplest ways to make intimacy more comfortable and more enjoyable, whether you're on your own or with a partner. Here's a quick guide to the main types.
Water-based
The most versatile choice. Water-based lubricants are gentle, easy to wash away and compatible with all products and materials, including silicone. A great place to start.
Silicone-based
Longer-lasting and silky-smooth, silicone lubricants are ideal for the bath or shower. Avoid using them with silicone products, as they can damage the surface over time.
Oil-based and massage oils
Wonderful for massage and slow, sensual moments. Oil-based products shouldn't be used with latex condoms, as oil can weaken latex.
What to look for
- Short, simple ingredient lists
- pH-balanced and body-friendly formulas
- Fragrance-free if you have sensitive skin
A note on sensitivity
Everyone's body is different. Try a small amount first, and if you experience any irritation, stop using it and speak to a healthcare professional if needed.
